This study analyzes longitudinal cortical structure changes in adolescents by sex-at-birth, showing covariate choices affect interpretations of neuroanatomical development and that cortical thickness changes relative to surface area are comparable across sexes but occur at slightly older ages in males.

This study examines how prenatal tobacco and alcohol exposure affects cortical structure and development in early adolescence using longitudinal data from the ABCD Study.

The paper examines how neighborhood deprivation relates to childhood obesity and brain structure, supporting neuroinflammation and neuronal stress theories.

This study examines how rapid weight gain in youth affects brain structure and impulsivity, finding associations with specific brain regions and suggesting interventions targeting inhibitory control.

This paper provides descriptive analyses of physical health measures in the ABCD cohort at baseline, highlighting variations across demographic groups and linking them to health disparities.

The paper examines how economic, social, and physiological resilience factors relate to brain structure and cognitive performance in 9-10-year-olds.

The paper describes neuroimaging processing methods for the ABCD Study to extract brain phenotypes from multimodal imaging data.

This study examines subcortical brain volume changes across adolescence in males and females using three longitudinal samples, finding sex differences but inconsistent trajectories across samples.
